winemaker's notes:

#20 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2010

Dark ruby-purple, nearly opaque. A compelling, exotic nose of raspberry liqueur, briar, pepper, and incense. Not as floral as Carlisle Vineyard but it's obvious this comes from the same ‘hood. On the palate, full-bodied with explosive flavors of kirsch and black raspberry leading to a long and persistent finish. A wine that manages to be both powerful and graceful at the same time. Easily our best Papera Ranch Zinfandel to date. Enjoy this age-worthy zinfandel from mid-2010 through 2018.

critical acclaim:

"A real knockout. Bold and intense, yet complex, with ripe cherry fruit deftly balanced by vibrant acidity. Offers floral aromas with notes of black raspberry, pepper and lingering Asian spice that lead to full but fleshy tannins. Drink now through 2015."

Wine Spectator

"Glass-staining purple. A compelling bouquet of black raspberry, blueberry, sandalwood incense and potpourri is strikingly pure and expansive. Deep, energetic red and dark berry flavors manage to be both powerful and graceful, with silky tannins providing structure and back-end grip. I wouldn't hesitate to drink this sexy wine now but I'd bet it will reward another four or five years of patience."

93 Points

International Wine Cellar

"Ripe red and black currants intertwined with heady amounts of raspberry, blueberry, and wild berry fruit characterize the 2007 Zinfandel Papera Ranch, a blend of 93% Zinfandel and 7% mixed black varietals. Pure, spicy, and loaded with flavor, this super Zin should drink well for 5-8 years."
